Strange typing issue in Word 07

Just recently the strangest thing is occurring in Microsoft Word 07. When I start tying, It is fine for a few minutes. Then the cursor disappears and stops typing. When I put the cursor back with the mouse its fine for a little bit then starts over again. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have been having the same problem in Word, as well as Excel, on the internet, Outlook - everywhere - this seemed to happen after the last upgrade in Windows for some kind of virus a couple of months ago. It happened writing this as well - when I stop typing for a few seconds, the cursor is just gone - I have to click the mouse twice to have it come back to the screen. Any ideas - this is really annoying....I have been having the same problem in Word, as well as Excel, on the internet, Outlook - everywhere - this seemed to happen after the last upgrade in Windows for some kind of virus a couple of months ago.

Did this start after installing some new software? Is your anti-virus updated?

Also, hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete to start Task Manager and see if the CPU usage is around 100%. Click the Performance tab and see if the green line is at the top. Click the Processes tab and the CPU column twice so that the process using the most CPU shows at the top. This is the memory and resource hog. It may be a virus.

Hi, The Indexing related issue occurs if one of the device driver is corrupt or not updated. Did the issue occur right after you installed the system, or it started to occur recently? If it occurred originally, the hard disk may not support Win SAT. You may need to contact the manufacturer of the hard disk to confirm this situation. If it started to occur recently, Kingv84, please let us know if you have installed any disc maintenance related programs. If so, please remove it and check the result. If the issue still occurs, I suggest that you boot in Clean Boot Mode. Clean boot=================Let’s disable all startup items and third party services when booting. This method will help us determine if this issue is caused by a loading program or service. Please perform the following steps:1. Click the Start Button type "msconfig" (without quotation marks) in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.Note: If prompted, please click Continue on the User Account Control (UAC) window.2. Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray). 3. Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".Then, restart the computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the "Don't show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when Windows starts" box and click OK.Please test this issue in the Clean Boot environment, if the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, we can use a 50/50 approach to quickly narrow down which entry is causing the issue.For more information about this step, please refer to the following KB article:How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vistahttp://support.microsoft.com//kb/929135 If the issue still occurs in Clean Boot Mode, please let us know if the computer is from computer manufacturer.For the desktop changing issue, please visit the linkhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/327998
